Description
Growing flowering plants for sale is a relatively easy way to earn money. If you have a basic knowledge of gardening then this is an ideal way to generate a substantial turnover in a short period of time and with low start-up costs.
Even if one does not have a gardening or horticultural background, plant growing is easy and can be learnt quickly. It is a healthy, stress-free occupation that is very rewarding.
It is the ideal venture for families with children who want to have an additional income which can be worked at either part-time or full-time. If you have been laid off work, or have a part-time job and require additional income, then growing and selling flowers and plants could be prefect for you.
This book is primarily aimed at small-scale growers who may be considering starting out on such a venture, or are looking for ideas to make extra money. It will hopefully give you some information to get started and may help you decide if this venture is for you.
